Did you say impact?
<\/span><\/h1>\n

At makesense, the search for impact has been both our vocation and driving force as well as one of our biggest challenges since our creation.
<\/span><\/h2>\n

We want to empower everyone to act and mobilize those around them to ultimately make society more sustainable and inclusive. And has it worked? Over the last 10 years have we managed to push society into action, to change mentalities, to lead citizens on the path to change?<\/span><\/p>\n

To evaluate the scope of our actions, we have initiated a process to measure our impact on citizens in France.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Concerned about ecological issues, Valentine was at a loss for what to do. Where to start?<\/strong> She started by the #AperoPaum\u00e9es<\/strong> where, for two hours, she was able to share her doubts and discuss her questions with other people.<\/p>\n

Reinvigorated, she joined a program of action<\/strong> that, in two months, has enabled her to guide her local neighborhood restaurant on the path towards zero waste. Now a seasoned campaigner, she brought together 20 residents from her neighborhood to set up a zero-waste, socially conscious canteen financed by her city’s participatory budget.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\t<\/div>\n\t\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n\n

Always going further <\/h2>\n

The makesense model guides people from inaction to activism and gives everyone the means to invent new ways of doing and being. Our tools train people in the acquisition of skills related to societal transformation, from knowledge to know-how to soft skills, and are based on the reputed reference of the OECD Learning Compass<\/a>. Thanks to makesense…<\/strong>

Mission accomplished?<\/span><\/h3>\n

75% of the people who have participated in makesense programs realize that it is possible to take action and want to get started. 36% are genuinely committed to taking action and 55% have mobilized an average of one to five people around them.

Our mission will be accomplished when there are enough people on the final step of involvement to move society into a new world\u2014the so-called \u2018tipping point\u2019 specialists speak of.<\/span><\/p>\n
